This is the first YSL mascara I've had the pleasure of trying! My first impression was that this packaging looks and feels so luxe. I've been very impressed with the formula. It provides a ton of volume and thickness without turning my lashes into spider legs! I love a mascara with a big, fat brush too, this one is just perfect. The longevity is really impressive as well. I have really oily skin that can often mess with my eye makeup, but this mascara isn't going anywhere! -

I'm so happy I'm starting to see tranexamic acid in more and more skincare products lately! It's such a great, effective ingredient for brightening hyperpigmentation, and when combined with niacinamide and vitamin C, dark spots basically stand no chance. These patches are a really decent size and can fully cover pretty much any size dark spot. The adherence is also really impressive, they stay on all night without any lifting on the edges. I really love the idea of having an all-night targeted treatment for hyperpigmentation and dark spots and have started to see slight improvement with just the 4 uses. Since I was only sent 4 of these patches, I can't speak to the true effectiveness of them after 10 days of use, but given the fantastic blend of ingredients in them I truly have high hopes for them. I'm very pale, so post-blemish spots stand out in a really embarrassing way on my skin, so I will absolutely be buying a full box of these! Thank you to PanOxyl and Butterly!

This is easily the best smelling perfume I've ever smelled, hands down. I've always been the type to think I hated most expensive fragrances, because everything always smelled too 'perfumey' and the same to me. I would gravitate towards celebrity fragrances and body spray brands because those would actually smell like something other than 'generic perfume' to me. Lost Cherry changed all that. It's incredible from beginning to end, but unfortunately the end comes waaaay too soon. At this price point, a fragrance should definitely last longer than a couple hours which is so incredibly disappointing. -

I wanted to love this after hearing so many good things about it. I typically used this on my body after a shower and unfortunately it always left my skin feeling a bit sticky which is a deal breaker for me. I got through the entire bottle and unfortunately didn't notice any sort of brightening effects or PIH fading, but it is extremely hydrating. To the point where it could be used as a light body moisturizer in the summer instead of an actual moisturizer. It's also got a nice bubble gum sort of scent that fades very quickly and is obviously an incredible value price wise for the amount of product you get. A bottle lasted me almost 2 years. -

This is absolutely one of my holy grails of skincare. The texture is perfect, it absorbs so quickly and leaves my skin feeling very plump, hydrated and calm. It heals and soothes any sort of blemishes or irritation basically overnight. If you're a tretinoin user, you absolutely want this in your routine. I'll never stop using this as long as cosrx never stops making it! -

I typically avoid night creams as I typically find them too heavy and greasy. I loved this Clarins one though. It's a much lighter gel consistency that doesn't seem like it would be overly hydrating at first, yet I found it to be so much more moisturizing and hydrating than the majority of facial moisturizer. I didn't experience any sort of irritation and found it to be quite gentle, but if you're sensitive to fragrance you might not enjoy this one as much due to it being fairly heavily fragranced. -

Dr. Oetker Momenti Three Cheese Pizza
I got to try this product in exchange for my honest review. Unfortunately this was a bit of a miss for me. A much crunchier crust than I prefer, and not a ton of flavor. It was also quite small.

I have no idea what kind of sorcery was used to create this wonder water, but my fried, bleached hair is so grateful for it's existence. It's a bit hard to apply due to it being literal water consistency, but it starts getting warm almost immediately upon contact she it's easy to tell where it is. My coarse, dry hair felt like it was almost melting into a smoother, silkier texture, all in seconds! My hair looked considerably better after styling too. I reaaaaally love this stuff. -
